"The
most difficult part of filmmaking is when I'm going
for something that I haven't done before. I'm trying
to give the audience a new feeling through the use
of camera, and I'm looking for something that is
cinematically vague and stylized,
and I don't know
what it is - until I discover it." James
Cameron - Director/Writer
"Some days I am Orson
Welles. Other days I am the worst loser, impostor,
know-nothing wannabe filmmaker in the world. I
believe both with equal conviction. And I've become
friends with that rudderless feeling."
Alexander Payne - Director/Writer
"A director
makes a thousand decisions a day, and you better be
right about most or else your movie is poorly
directed. Directing is tone - and tone is the
hardest thing to explain to someone. It's like how
you know you're in love with somebody." Jason
Reitman - Director/Writer |

"No one has
ever tapped me on the shoulder and said "Go be
a director, here's
a lot of money!" But with a lot of
creative energy and a lot of labor, you can
find a way to make the films you want." John
Sayles - Director/Writer
"Every
time
you call "ACTION" and then "CUT"
- you create your own film magic in between those two
words, and when you're finally all done, you get
your name
written with the credit "Directed
by" - it doesn't get much better than
that!"
Guy
Magar - Director/Writer & Action/Cut Founder
